        Until this morning, Clovis was a nominee for a senior USDA post.

        Hed and lede seem off in that I think Clovis is at Ag not at WH, in a position that liaises with WH. Wrong to call him a senior WH staffer.

        I’m just a schmo amateur in law land, but sure sounds like Clovis’ Lawyers told him to not say a thing about Grand Jury to the White House.

        I think the surprise is more that WH wasn't keeping tabs on everyone important from the campaign in anticipation that they might be called.

        From the descriptions from insiders the vetting question linking almost all Campaign Staff was “Will you work for free?” a Yes=Hired.

        The ‘they’ in this case being those who WERE paying them to work for ‘free’ for The Citrus Gollum.
